>>What do you mean, your using Ubuntu right? 32 or 64bit? In all my 10 years
of using linux, I have never had a piece of software complain that it
couldn't run on intel/amd. Now if your on 64bit Ubuntu, yes it's called
AMD64, but it will work on intel. From the wiki: The original specification
was created by AMD <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Micro_Devices>,
and has been implemented by AMD,
Intel<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Corporation>
, VIA <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VIA_Technologies>, and others So the
naming convention is still AMD64, but it will work on Intel processors. All
Ubuntu 64bit debs are naming convention AMD64, and 32bit naming is i386.
Don't worry, just download the 64bit deb (if your using 64bit) and you
should be good to go.
To get beta wine in ubuntu, since your new (ie probably not comfortable with
compiling from source), check out this ppa:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ppa
add it to your sources, and you'll be able to get the newest wine (as of
this writing 1.3.27, new release every 2 weeks about).
